Andy Griffith Samurai Nationalism. This is my new ideology. Before this moment it was unclaimed territory, but now it is mine.
People think that they can clear up profound matters if they consider them deeply, but they exercise perverse thoughts and come to no good because they do their reflecting with only self-interest at the center
Every morning one should first do reverence to his master and parents and then to his patron deities and guardian Buddhas. If he will only make his master first in importance, his parents will rejoice and the gods and Buddhas will give their assent
When looking at the men of today with this in mind, those who could be thought to have a woman's pulse are many indeed, and those who seem like real men few. Because of this, if one were to make a little effort, he would be able to take the upper hand quite easily
Furthermore, to think that being righteous is the best
one can do and to do one's utmost to be righteous will, on the contrary, bring many mistakes. The Way is in a higher place then righteousness. This is very difficult to discover, but it is the highest wisdom

This one is good, but not very quotable. Excellent pacing Image

We are living in a scientific theocracy that has rejected both God and science.

This is possible because ideas are alive and they reproduce by influencing humans to spread them, and there's a sense in which ideas are bigger organisms than people, higher up the food chain
An older version of this thought: the idée fixe—an idea becomes an object of fixation, and completely overtakes the person, til his mind is nothing but the idea. This is part of the theory of the idea as force: "people don't have ideas, ideas have people"
But the understanding of "idea as force" is incomplete without an account of the Darwinian struggle between ideas. It's not only a metaphor, to say ideas have their own life, because although they exist in our minds, they exist independently from any individual

I'm just going say it: Women who use birth control are empty beer bottles. That's right, Jewel beetles would rather mate with a certain type of empty beer bottle than with females of their own species, because the design of the bottle confuses their mate-finding instincts
An evolutionary mismatch occurs when the conditions that produced an adaptation are disrupted, and the adaptation is no longer beneficial. You can find other famous examples involving sea turtles and such. Bright lights confuse their hatchlings and can't find the ocean
Evolution is a form of computation. Genetic algorithms work by producing a population of variants on a theme, evaluating them by some criteria, and producing the next generation from the winners. Genetic iteration yields shockingly intelligent outputs

Curtis Yarvin has posted some cring, but his core insights are critical for Americans to understand: our democracy doesn't work like you think, and even if it did, it wouldn't be good. Now Yarvin is becoming "mainstream" because the right has nowhere else to turn
In a way it's a riff on an old joke: "if voting could change anything, they'd make it illegal." Yarvin's innovation, simple as it sounds, is taking this joke seriously, and convincing others to take it seriously, too
and I mean you hear these jokes, maybe you laugh and repeat them, then you carry on acting like it's not true. Republicans are dems driving the speed limit. Dems are the real racists. These are also mental stopsigns, if they keep you playing the game

Everything the regime does is good and correct, so whenever anything goes wrong, it's always "saboteurs", you see, who are undermining the solidarity of the workers ImageImage

By posting a phrenology charts for every body part, I will convince the egirls to give me enough material to assemble a full nude.

Then I will draw green lines on it
These are so good.
Most of these are from Vaught's Practical Character Reader, via some bugman site that was mocking it. Ask yourself, however, do these illustrations not coincide with your own first-hand experience?

People who say there's no evidence are clearly deficient in vital magnetism
